The vSphere module without Director?

GenBuri · November 5, 2019, 2:43pm

Hi everyone,

We aren’t using the Director but would like to use the vSphere module… is there a way to do it?
I read this module is hooked into Director…

Thank you!

The new release from today does not require director anymore.

@anon66228339 One more thing…are the installation steps the same as before?

Hi ! As far as i could see in the requirements the don’t list the director any more so it should work as long as the other requirements are met.

Requirements

Icinga Web 2 (>= 2.5)
PHP (>= 5.6, preferably 7.x)
php-soap
php-pcntl (might already be built into your PHP binary)
php-posix (on RHEL/CentOS this is php-process, or rh-php7x-php-process)
MySQL (>= 5.6) or MariaDB (>= 5.5.3)
The following Icinga modules must be installed and enabled:
- ipl (>=0.3.0)
- incubator (>=0.5.0)
- reactbundle (>=0.7.0)

Thanks David. That’s what I needed.

Apparently they have just removed the prerequisite to have Director!
